The Time Machine Conundrumā„¢.
Itā€™s always ā€˜Hitler, et alā€™.

Without a need for a time machine. No interaction with the past necessary.
Applying a limited scope affecting: ā€˜US politicsā€™.
Naming only three individuals.

ā€˜If you had the ability, whose existence would you erase from history?ā€™

Just an intellectual exercise.
Whom would you choose never to exist?

Iā€™m going with:

  1. Rupert Murdoch.
  2. James Baker III.
  3. Tom Delay.

Gingrich. There are others but heā€™s number one.

What Stone has done in the past for Trump doesnā€™t mean anything to Trump. He feels that all he gets he was owed. Whatever Stone did for Trump was deserved by default.
What has Stone got that can benefit Trump in the future? Nothing.
There is no reason for a pardon.

Marcy Wheeler makes the argument that trump should actually be furious at manafort. Maybe he is. He does sour on everyone, and he probably likes accomplices who donā€™t get convicted.

But, heā€™d say, in a playful way.

The next Dem. president should just revoke the one awarded to Rush Limbaugh. Thereā€™s no law against it. And there is precedent for stripping medals. Donā€™t do away with the award. Cleanse it.

This is like Jenga, except the objective is to prevent the whole right wing power structure from forming.

Thatā€™s tough. Iā€™d have to say Gingrich too, but there are too many others to mention. Lee Attwater knocks out a whole generation of these agents provocateur: Gingrich, Limbaugh, Rove, Bannon.

Ok, Attwater, Putin and Dick Cheney!

That really is a truckload of gall coming down the pike. Best we see it coming and pull off the road.

Well since all politics is local then start close and spiral outward.
